"Love Is Art" Brings New Creativity to the Bedroom
Robert Doyle READ TIME: 2 MIN.
ATLANTA, GA - The LOVE IS ART Project is defining the concept of romantic creativity. Founded by South African-born Jeremy Brown, LOVE IS ART inspires lovers to create their own masterpiece. As an abstract artist, Brown has been making paintings during intimacy for over a decade, inspired by the 1960's French artist Yves Klein and various performance pieces by Andy Warhol.
After being complimented on a personal work of art in his home, Brown was inspired to create artists' kits which help lovers create an intimate work of art during the act of making love. Simply put, LOVE IS ART is a kit that comes with everything a couple needs to safely make a tangible piece of abstract expressionistic art while being intimate with one another.
What is left is a one-of-a-kind abstract painting that represents that special moment, that can then be stretched, framed and hung on the wall -- a reminder of the love that was shared. The kit also provides a unique bonding experience for the couples involved, as they work together as a team to craft their own unique masterpiece.
Brown spent 6 months researching and developing appropriate materials to ensure a safe project, including a treated non-allergenic cotton canvas, as well as a specially formulated non-toxic washable paint. Each kit includes:
* 80" x 90" plastic sheet to protect surfaces from paint splashes
* 54" x 41" specially treated non-allergenic white cotton canvas
* 4 ounce bottle of specially formulated black, non-toxic washable paint
* Two pairs of disposable paper slippers
* Custom body scrubber
As a result, romance finds its shape in Brown's new project. Already a hit with numerous couples, the kit is sure to find success as gift for various occasions such as: the holidays, Valentine's Day, birthdays, engagements, wedding gifts, bachelorette parties, or just because. According to Brown, "Art takes patience, dedication, practice, creativity, an open mind, and an open heart...so does love. Love is art."
The Love is Art kit retails for $60 and has been featured in a variety of national and international media outlets including The Today Show, 944 Magazine, Daily Candy, Elle, Thrilllist and UPTOWN Magazine.
